Is there any workaround to redirect to a view when I click the 'Add' action button?

[Erwin_John_Arag]

Is there a way for the ‘Add’ button to execute an action and redirect me to a view I prefer?

Currently, if I click Add button, it will redirect me to the default form view, but what I want is to redirect me to a view that is more preferred by my UX team.

PS: forgive my messy screencaps

Typically the default system add action button takes the user to a new form.

You could certainly evaluate using a LINKTOVIEW() deep link action or other similar deep link actions and place the custom action in the summary view with the prominence as an overlay.

Hi @Erwin_John_Aragon

In addition to what @Suvrutt_Gurjar said, you may want to set this deep link action there:

At doing so, the Add button will lead you to your form, then when saving that will execute the deep link action ==> get you wherever you need.

Oh my my! Thank you for both of you!

1. Created a Behavior->Action Go to another view within this app and set the prominence to Display overlay.

2. Set the display setting to CONTEXT(“View”)=Nameofyourview
